Two Worlds is an absolutely epic game. Granted, not on the level of Skyrim or Dark Souls, and a notch under the even better second game, but still absolutely awesome and recommended for the price. I was tempted to get it so I could play it in English, but seeing as I've played it in German three times through, I don't really think I'd get anything from it.

Was tempted to get the Earth 2150 trilogy and Earth 2160 again though, will give it some thought.

And into the basket you go, Jack Orlando :)

Just noticed that Earth 2140 now has a DOS version. Does that include the mission packs?

Checked it. Yup, it does.

Also: Great job to the GOG team for finally "Fixing" earth 2140

It took a long time but we got there in the end

I discovered this site because of Enclave.

I was searching on the net for a copy of it to buy and came across a hit for it on GOG. It was my very first purchase on this site and obviously I feel Enclave is a worthy purchase for any Action/Adventure hack n slash fan.

It's challenging, especially if you are going for finding and retrieving all the gold in the game. I never beat it when I owned it on Xbox still looks rather nice which is very very impressive for an about decade old game.

It's level/mission based. A game to compare it to.. anyone play Draconus: Cult of the Wyrm on Dreamcast? It's kinda setup like that.


As you progress you unlock various characters/classes. You can try to go through the game with whatever your favorite is every level. But often you will find that some levels are best done with a certain class. In each level there is a certain amount of gold to get. Some fall off enemies some are hidden in the level. The more gold you collect in between levels you can upgrade your gear with it.

The game kinda mixes some of those old school instant death moments into the game. Head shots are usually instant kill to your enemies and to yourself. Crossing a bridge and hear a crunch,cracking noise? Well you better get off it quick cause you about to instant die to your doom.

Personally I find the combat very satisfying, weapon swings, arrow shots all feel/sound very nice and almost "natural" would be a word to use.

Then I'll probably pick that up. Thanks!

Two Worlds is awful. Unless there's some fan projects that patched out all the jankiness. Two Worlds 2 managed to approach decent, but the first is inept.

I played the GOG version a year or two ago without any problems. It's not half bad, too.

Nice, I'll be saving some money this weekend. Already have all the promo'd games.

Two worlds 2 was unquestionably prettier, though I found myself less drawn in as a whole than with Two Worlds 1. By the time I played Two Worlds 1, they'd patched the horse riding to somewhere near decent - whereas I found the horse riding in Two Worlds 2 a waste of time, and the timed riding quests to be a pain.

You're forced into the quest lines more in Two worlds 2, whereas I think there was some more freedom in Two Worlds 1 in various ways. I prefer sandbox games myself, but I recognize that opinions differ.

I recognize that this is likely to be an unpopular opinion - but I actually enjoyed Two Worlds 1 more than vanilla Oblivion, and I know that I wasn't the only one. Oblivion was interesting in a lot of ways - but it had an awful lot of more or less empty and repetitive dungeons, magic tends to be underpowered unless you dedicate yourself to breaking the magic system, and the creature leveling was completely out of control in Oblivion. I went through several characters, all of which were just getting to the interesting point in terms of skills - only to find that everything around me had leveled up significantly more powerfully than I had. I was still able to kill things with patience, dedication and effort - but it wasn't fun to play anymore. Two Worlds 1 seemed to have more of a focus on traditional game elements in various ways; Oblivion has some interesting systems, but it is in many ways a much more abstract game design.

And yes - I know that playing vanilla Oblivion is the wrong way to play it. Nevertheless, Two Worlds 1 isn't as bad as all that. It wasn't a perfect game by any means - the central plot was admittedly weak - but, on the plus side, it's also easy to ignore.

Anyway, here is a very detailed comparison of Two Worlds 1 and 2 by another author, with pros and cons for both Two Worlds 1 and Two Worlds 2:

I already have all I really want from Topware. I may get Earth 2140, 2160, and Wildfire at some point but I'm in nor hurry.

OMFG, once again GOG gave me a boner. I already owned all games from the promo but the fact that the DOS version of Earth 2140 is available now is simply epic. GOG should delete all "do not buy" reviews that referred to the Windows port (including mine). Now it's a totally different story. Guess my new rating would be 4 stars.

Two World sold at $20 on Steam? Then, $5 here look like a total steal. For too long i read some people complaining about GOG's games are overprice. While, this time; 11 games for $34.89 are really bargain deal. Give credit where it's due.

A great principle! I've done just that.

I'm a fan of RTS, but I was going to hold off due to my considerable backlog (more than 100 games by now... Scary). But just as I'll support GOG for DRM Free principles, I'll support them for being loyal to their customers and treating them with respect. It helps that three dollars isn't a kingly sum, of course.

I first became interested in the Earth series by noticing its resemblance to WarZone 2100 (not a mere coincidence, I presume). WarZone is a great free Open Source title, some bugs, but growing better than the original on a constant basis. In leaves you without a lot of guidance, so I'm having difficulty succeeding on the average mission. It also encourages a lot of replay with it's promotable units (which I haven't studied the benefits of enough, yet. Path finding and range finding seems to be what's most at issue with the title, but it seems quite ambitious and the AI otherwise rugged, so I can forgive it. I hope the Earth series doesn't disappoint!
